Yo Tim!
I found the key blank for the Guzzi!
Got to looking at the other Guzzi keys, and one of them had "FIAT" on it. So I went to the key guy's site and looked at all his Fiat key blanks. Well, lo and behold, there the blank was: http://keys4classics.com/images/019.jpg So I messaged the guy in Washington with the news. We'll see if he can dig one up. I'd rather buy American to show my support of our new President! |

Hope it comes together in fine fashion! Btw, I'm getting the big and am eyeballing another MV Agusta again... Also/or a super clean mid 70s 1000cc BMW. Decisions decisions |

Decisions decisions I've no interest in the MV Augusta, as I figure it would be a bear to find parts or labor for the thing. But, a very nice mid 80's to mid 90's BMW (boxer style) would be of interest. Something like this might be interesting: http://moto.zombdrive.com/images/bmw-r100rt-6.jpg But, I'm more inclined to start looking seriously for one of these: https://baltimore.craigslist.org/mcy/6098520800.html That one's a recent pop up on Craigslist. Maybe I'll wait 'til the Guzzi hits 100K. |

That 600 scooter is really attractive. I like how he said "no lowball offers" then puts OBO on his pricing. Lol.
No, the MV is getting mor common. There is are dealers about 100 mi away for about anything I'd need. Unfortunately that's still 100 mi. But like Guzzi's they don't grow on trees like the big 4 Japanese bikes. Anyhow just dreaming. So far.... |

Here's a Beemer like I'm interested in. Not my pic but same spec bike...

After 6 months of recoup and replacing the lower leg forks and new rear subframe I rode my r/100gspd 100 miles yesterday. She ran straight and true, but for a cracked rear rim I thought was a badly seated bead. Heading to SLC for the BMWMOA rally in July. |

Is the SLC (Salt Lake City?) rally a big one? |

Man I hope you have a great time and a safe ride getting there and back. Good to find the faults early. Glad it's coming together... |
